Abstract. Formal methods based on the mathematical theory of partially ordered sets (i.e., posets) have been used in the database field for the modelling of spatial data since many...
In this paper we present a new notion of what it means for a problem in P to be inherently sequential. Informally, a problem L is strictly sequential P-complete if when the best kn...
We present a game model for classical PCF, a nite version of PCF extended by a catch/throw mechanism. This model is build from E-dialogues, a kind of two-players game de ned by Lor...
Learnability in Valiant’s PAC learning model has been shown to be strongly related to the existence of uniform laws of large numbers. These laws define a distribution-free conver...
We show that two cooperating robots can learn exactly any strongly-connected directed graph with n indistinguishable nodes in expected time polynomial in n. We introduce a new typ...
